The fall 2013 BFA exhibition will be on show Dec. 13-20, with a free opening reception 5-8 p.m. Friday, Dec. 13, at the gallery.

Christina DanielStudent works including graphic design, drawing, painting, printmaking and photography will be featured in a new bachelor of fine arts (BFA) show at the University of Alabama at Birmingham Visual Arts Gallery.

BFA is the undergraduate professional degree for studio art in the Department of Art and Art History. These exhibitions are the pinnacle of achievement for those students accepted into the program at UAB. The show will feature works by Christina Daniel, Cary Marks, Shannon Robinson and Andrew Williams.

The fall 2013 UAB BFA exhibition will be on show Friday, Dec. 13 through Friday, Dec. 20. A free opening reception is planned from 5 to 8 p.m. Dec. 13, at the gallery, 900 13th St. South. Call 205-934-0815.

Andrew WilliamsDaniel’s work explores the transient and ephemeral nature of personal relationships using mixed media to create tactile, physical evidence of human interaction.

For his recent work, Marks has used photography to explore his interests in the camera’s ability to capture expanses of time. Marks’ work examines the intersection of this perception of time with collective memories and nostalgia.

Robinson’s artistic interests lie in the meanings and perceptions of written and typed text. Robinson uses typography as a method of playfully altering the visual voice of a certain text, while creating a duality for words that may have held a traditionally singular meaning.

This significant gift comes to UAB after the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts voted to make new gifts to all institutions that were recipients of photographic works from The Andy Warhol Photographic Legacy Program. In 2008, UAB received 150 works by Warhol as part of a gift from the foundation, which distributed works to nearly 200 university museums nationwide. The gift to UAB included both Polaroids, for which Warhol was famous, and 8-by-10 black-and-white prints.

The new gifts are large screen prints on paper. They were delivered and opened for inspection at the Birmingham Museum of Art at 2 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 14. While the images have been seen, these specific prints never left Warhol’s studio.

“These works are pristine and in the state they were coming off the press,” said UAB College of Arts and Sciences Dean Robert Palazzo, Ph.D. “They have never been framed, let alone displayed, and were in the artist’s possession at the time of his death. Given the nature of this gift, the works are essentially priceless. UAB is honored to accept such a gift that will doubtless interest and inspire many students in the future.”

This is a significant addition to the UAB permanent art collection, and it will benefit the relationship between the UAB Visual Arts Gallery and the Department of Art and Art History, says Department Chair Lauren Lake, MFA.

“The relationship enriches the curriculum by providing an ongoing opportunity for students and professors to examine and research original works of art, which is an invaluable component of arts education,” Lake said.

UAB is especially pleased with the wide range of Warhol’s working methods reflected in the prints, as well as the compelling thematic links among them, says John Fields, MFA, interim director of the UAB Visual Arts Gallery.

“This is a spectacularly generous gift not only to UAB but to the city of Birmingham as well,” Fields said. “These are major works by one of the most significant artists of the 20th century, and we are thrilled that they have found a permanent home at UAB. We anticipate being able to use these in a number of dynamic presentations both to our students and to the wider public.”

Gail Andrews, director of the Birmingham Museum of Art, says that the prints, joining the already impressive gifts of Polaroids given several years ago, enable UAB as a strong interpreter of Warhol’s work.

“There are many exciting collaborations with the museum’s collection, most directly with the ‘Hammer and Sickle’ screen print and our drawing of the same subject,” Andrews said. “The opportunities for exhibitions, teaching and research are significantly enhanced. This is great for the university and for our community at large.”

Warhol, a pioneering artist who worked in media ranging from drawing and painting to prints, photography and sculpture, died suddenly in 1987. He left the bulk of his estate to the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts and specified its broad mission to be the advancement of the visual arts.

Michael Straus, chairman of the board of the Andy Warhol Foundation, says that the gifts of photographs and now prints to UAB and other universities are all in fulfillment of that mission, by making available to the widest public audience compelling images together with material that will encourage scholarly and other educational exploration of Warhol’s extensive body of work. Speaking also as a Birmingham resident and a trustee of the BMA, Straus added that he is especially pleased at the degree to which these gifts will greatly expand UAB’s own holdings, and, with the opening of the AEIVA, thereby foster the already expanding and fruitful relationship between UAB and the museum, all for the benefit of the public at large.

These exhibitions are the pinnacle of achievement for those students accepted into the BFA program at UAB.

The BFA degree is the undergraduate professional degree for studio art in the Department of Art and Art History. These exhibitions are the pinnacle of achievement for those students accepted into the BFA program at UAB. All of the featured student artists will graduate this spring.

The spring 2013 UAB BFA exhibition will be on show April 12-May 10, 2013. The show will feature works by Amy Clark, Jin Chung, Laurin Humphries, Angela Outsey, Tracey Resler, Alexandra Smith, Lindsay Warner and Daniel Williams. A free opening reception is planned from 5-9 p.m. Friday, April 12, at the gallery, 900 13th St. S. Call 205-934-0815.

Clark draws from the traditional families of rural Southern communities and their rich culture of faith, artisan practices and self-sufficiency to create designs with a “home-spun” feel. Chung explores the innocence, whimsicality and quaintness of life to turn playful ideas into fanciful works of art and design. Humphries uses a variety of drawing mediums to explore the dangers presented by consumerist media and the association of one's identity with materialism. Outsey's artwork represents the development and morphing aspects of people's personalities over time.

Jin Chung

Using layering techniques, Outsey’s drawings conceptually explore the mental complexity of her subjects. Resler’s current artwork explores the natural action of simple movement through a series of lithographic prints, depicting the four basic elements of earth, wind, fire and water. Smith, by combining printmaking and photography, explores the portrayal of women in contemporary media while raising questions about archetypes and perceived femininity. Warner uses clay as a metaphor for human relationships and as an interpretation of the human condition culled from personal experience and social observation. Williams uses traditional printmaking techniques to combine Christian imagery and comic-book aesthetics to explore the mythology and moral compass of western religion.

The gallery is open 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday-Friday. New hours are 10-4 p.m. Saturday. The gallery is closed on Sunday and holidays.

Hancock will judge the 37th UAB Juried Student Annual Exhibition and present a free lecture on his life and work at 6 p.m. Feb. 28, in the Mary Culp Hulsey Recital Hall, 950 13th St. South. The lecture is free and open to the public. His visit is sponsored by the Jemison Visiting Professorship in the Humanities and presented as part of the College of Arts and Sciences’ Civil Rights Commemorative Series. For a complete listing of the college’s commemorative events, visit www.uab.edu/civilrights.

The step-son of a Baptist minister, Hancock’s work references biblical narratives, as well as comic book art. His work is on display in Dallas at Cowboys Stadium, and was included in the 2000 and 2002 Whitney Museum of American Art biennials in New York City, as well as in the New Orleans Prospect.1 biennial. Hancock has exhibited extensively, and his work is featured in many museum collections, including New York City’s Museum of Modern Art, the Brooklyn Museum, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Whitney. He received a Joan Mitchell Foundation grant in 1999. He is represented in New York by James Cohan Gallery and was a featured artist in the PBS program “Art21.” Hancock received his bachelor of fine arts degree from Texas A&M University, Commerce, and his master of fine arts degree from the Tyler School of Art at Temple University in Philadelphia, Pa.

The UAB Juried Student Exhibition invites all students enrolled in studio art courses at any level in the previous year to submit up to three works for consideration. The exhibition will feature works by UAB art studio students, selected as the best by Hancock.

The student works will be on show March 8-April 5 at the UAB Visual Arts Gallery, 900 13th St. South. An opening reception for the exhibition is planned for 5-8 p.m. Friday, March 8. Admission to the gallery is always free. Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday-Friday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday; the gallery, which is part of the UAB Department of Art and Art History, is closed on Sunday and holidays. Call 205-934-0815.

Works in “A Letter Edged in Black,” Schulte’s solo exhibition, were influenced by his recent opportunity to travel to various sites in Italy on a grant from the Office of Sponsored Programs at the University of Alabama, where Schulte is an assistant professor of drawing. Schulte’s installation comprises painted walls, a window treatment, drawings and a sculpture. Seeing the exhibition immerses the viewer in a singular experience – one that shares the surface, texture and tonality of that country’s distant past, while remaining contemporary.

The exhibition will run Feb. 4-23, 2013. There will be a closing reception from 5-9 p.m. Friday, Feb 22, at the gallery, 900 13th St. South. In conjunction with the exhibition, there will be a live sound installation at the closing reception by Andrew Raffo Dewar, soprano sax, and Brad Davis, electronics.

Admission to the gallery is always free. Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday-Friday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday; the gallery, which is part of the UAB Department of Art and Art History, is closed on Sunday and holidays. Call 205-934-0815.

“A Letter Edged in Black” represents another chapter in a series of exhibitions uniquely realized and conditioned by the sites and circumstances in which they are shown, said John Thomas Fields, interim director of the UAB Visual Arts Gallery

Striking images of women braving breast cancer will be on display at UAB Jan. 7-31, 2013.

University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) senior Brittney Bass Gray had just finished a week of finals during the summer 2011 semester when, out of the blue, she found herself facing an even greater challenge — breast cancer.

“I was single, trying to graduate and support myself through school,” said Gray, a 25-year-old psychology and mathematics major. “It was a surreal time.”

The Birmingham native is one of five women featured in “The Alabama Project: The Civil Rights of Health Care,” a collection of photographs that show young women battling breast cancer. The black-and-white images are a subset of “The SCAR Project: Breast Cancer Is Not a Pink Ribbon.”

The Scar Project is a series of large, striking portraits of breast cancer survivors from across America who bravely display their physical scars. Fashion photographer David Jay captured the photos for both collections. They will be presented in a free, public exhibition at the UAB Visual Arts Gallery through Jan. 31, 2013.

“I think they are incredibly inspirational people,” Jay said of the women. “They were just so honest and open and beautiful about it.”

When Gray saw the photos of her on display — one of her preparing to get an MRI and another showing her wince while a nurse pricks her arm — she was moved to tears.

“I never thought they would want to take my picture because I didn’t think I was that important,” Gray said. “I pray it inspires someone. Even if it’s just one person, I will feel my journey hasn’t gone in vain.”

Today, after 20 weeks of chemotherapy, a lumpectomy and more than six weeks of radiation, Gray is cancer-free. She plans to return to school this summer and complete her degree.

“Despite the obstacles, that still remains a goal for me,” she said.

The Alabama Project is co-sponsored by Susan G. Komen for the Cure North Central Alabama and the Susan Mott Webb Charitable Trust. Cynthia Ryan, Ph.D., associate professor of English, and John Thomas Fields, interim director of the Visual Arts Gallery, produced the show.

“Once you are diagnosed with breast cancer your life is never the same,” said Ryan, herself a two-time breast cancer survivor. “As we move forward in the fight, it is important that we look within the individual stories to see what the experience is really about.”

“The SCAR Project: Breast Cancer Is Not a Pink Ribbon” is a series of large-scale portraits that puts a raw, unflinching face on young women and breast cancer, while paying tribute to the courage and spirit of the many brave young women fighting the disease. The women, ages 18-35, represent young women living with breast cancer today, an often overlooked group. They journeyed from across the United States and the world to be photographed for “The SCAR Project.” More than 100 women have been photographed. Many traveled to his studio in New York City. If they were too sick to travel, he went to them.

“The Alabama Project: The Civil Rights of Health Care” is a subset of “The SCAR Project.” In this project, Jay documents a group of young women in Alabama, all in their 20s, battling not only breast cancer but the health-care system itself. The photos depict the women’s experiences struggling with both cancer and a host of associated issues such as health care, finances, unemployment, child care and more. From hospital rooms to living rooms, Jay’s poignant images capture each woman’s faith, perseverance, and beauty. One woman is from Demopolis; the others are all from the Birmingham area.

The show is produced by UAB Associate Professor of English Cynthia Ryan, Ph.D., and UAB Visual Arts Gallery Interim Director John Thomas Fields, M.F.A. Ryan says Jay contacted her to interview the women of “The Alabama Project” and write about them. Ryan also wrote the text for the show’s catalog book, which will be available at the exhibit.

An opening reception will be held from 5-9 p.m., Friday, Jan. 11, at the gallery, 900 13th St. South. Private gallery tours with Jay will be available. “Baring It All,” the Emmy Award-winning documentary about “The SCAR Project,” will be shown throughout the exhibition. Call the gallery at 205-934-0815.

B-Metro magazine will feature an essay by Ryan and photos by Jay in its January issue, and magazines will be available to guests at the opening reception. For more information on “The SCAR Project,” visit www.thescarproject.org and www.thescarprojectblog.com.

The UAB Visual Arts Gallery will present a group exhibition from New Orleans-based artist collective The Front Aug. 24-Sept. 21, 2012.

The UAB Visual Arts Gallery will present a group exhibition from New Orleans-based artist collective The Front Aug. 24-Sept. 21, 2012.

The Front is an artist-run collective and not-for-profit gallery that includes 14 acclaimed artists from multiple disciplines. Works from all 14 Front members will be on display at the Visual Arts Gallery. A free opening reception is planned from 5-9 p.m. Friday, Aug. 24 in the gallery, 900 13th St. South. The gallery is free and open to the public. For details call 205-934-0815.

The Front’s mission is to foster the development of contemporary art in New Orleans through exhibitions, lectures, screenings, performances and other arts programming, all of which are free and open to the public. Founded by artists in 2008 amid the post-Katrina resurgence of New Orleans and committed to a spirit of grassroots DIY determinism, The Front cultivates new and experimental work from emerging artists and nationally and internationally known artists.

Fields, M.F.A, is the interim director of the UAB Visual Arts Gallery, and he’s finishing the job former director Brett Levine started. The diverse, permanent collection has grown exponentially for more than three decades with works purchased or gifted. Some are by famous artists: a naughty doodle by Pablo Picasso, photographs by Andy Warhol, a print of a sculpture from the personal sketch book of Robert Rauschenberg. Many other works were created by UAB students and faculty, past and present.

The mission is to first chronicle each and every painting, drawing, sketch, print and sculpture, to develop an online catalog of all the works, available for viewing any time by students and the public. Fields is working on the project during the summer, while the gallery is closed. He first hangs the work level on a white wall, photographs it, then corrects and balances the electronic image before recording all the vital information — year it was created, artist, title, medium and other important details. He’s trained to photograph works behind glass, which can be difficult.

The mission is to first chronicle each and every painting, drawing, sketch, print and sculpture, to develop an online catalog of all the works, available for viewing any time by students and the public.

“My big goal is to make sure we have an accurate inventory before moving to the IVA,” Fields says, referring to the coming UAB Abroms-Engel Institute for Visual Arts, which will be built in UAB’s cultural arts district, near the Alys Stephens Performing Arts Center and the Hulsey Center for the Performing Arts. “It’s time for this, we need to do this.”

As UAB’s collection has grown, storage space has dwindled. Sorting through the stored collection is daunting. Each numbered work must be located, identified, photographed and archived. He must locate works from the collection that hang in buildings and offices around campus. Fields must go ensure each is where it is supposed to be and account for works that are missing, misplaced or damaged, he says. UAB does not loan any pieces off-site, except under rare circumstances, Fields says.

One example of discovering what’s hidden in the storage shelves: Fields found a self-portrait painted by illustrator Marvin Hayes, who ended up creating one of the most famous and best-selling modern, illustrated Bibles. The work has real value, although it isn’t obvious from first glance.

UAB’s Visual Arts Gallery celebrates the Bottletree, Birmingham’s own world-famous independent music venue, with an exhibition featuring a selection of Bottletree’s award-winning gig posters. With more than 300 hundred posters on display, “The Bottletree: A Five-Year Poster Retrospective” showcases works by hundreds of top designers and artists from Alabama and nationwide.

Due to its popularity, the exhibition “The Bottletree: A Five-Year Poster Retrospective” will be extended at the UAB Visual Arts Gallery through the month of July, says Gallery Director John Fields. The exhibition can be viewed by appointment only because the gallery will not keep regular hours that month.

“If anyone wants to see the exhibit, they can email me at johnf@uab.edu, and I’ll set up a time to have the gallery open,” Fields says.

During July, Fields will work to digitally archive the university’s permanent collection so that it may be available for public viewing online. Fields also will take a comprehensive inventory in preparations for the gallery’s move to the new Abroms-Engel Institute for the Visual Arts building next year.

The opening for August’s exhibition, originally scheduled for Aug. 3, has been pushed back at least two weeks to coincide with the beginning of the fall semester, Fields says.

The gallery is closed Sunday and holidays. Check out the gallery blog at www.uabvisualartsgallery.wordpress.com for an inside look at shows. The gallery is directed by John Fields. Call 205-934-0815 for more details.

Award-winning artist John Fields has been named director of the UAB Visual Arts Gallery and is busy scheduling exhibitions for 2012.

The UAB Visual Arts Gallery is now under the management of Interim Director John Fields, adjunct instructor in the UAB Department of Art and Art History. Fields’ first show will be an exhibition of kinetic sculpture works by UAB Associate Professor John Powers, opening Jan. 9. 2012.

A UAB Honors Program alumnus, Fields received his bachelor’s degree in art studio from UAB in 2003 and his master’s degree in painting from the University of New Orleans in 2007. An award-winning artist, Fields’ work has been exhibited nationally and internationally while also appearing in many publications. His most recent exhibition, “Dear Chuck” at beta pictoris gallery, received both critical and commercial success, becoming the first “sold-out” exhibition for the gallery. Fields has curated and organized numerous exhibitions locally and regionally. Fields received an Ellen Takahashi Award for Painting in 2003, Magic City Art Connection’s Best in Show for 2006, the Artvoices magazine Emerging Artist Award in 2007, a Luis Comfort Tiffany Award Nomination in 2007 and a Catherine Doctorow Prize for Contemporary Painting Nomination in 2011.

In 2012 the gallery’s hours of operation will change slightly. The gallery will continue to be open to the public Monday-Friday, 9 a.m.-6 p.m. and also will open on Saturdays from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. The gallery is closed on Sundays and holidays.

See how UAB alum Kristin Skees cozies up her artistic subjects when she presents a show of her knitted works and photos at the UAB Gallery.

Kristin Skees, a UAB Department of Art and Art History alumna, will present a selection of her “cozy portraits” and custom-knitted “cozies” in an exhibition Oct. 6 to Oct. 29, 2011, at the UAB Visual Arts Gallery, 900 13th St. South. The show is free and open to the public. The exhibition will feature a free reception from 5 to 8 p.m. Oct. 14 at the gallery. Call 205-934-0815 for more information.

“Cozied” depicts custom-knitted works that Skees creates, and that are worn by her subjects, as she photographs them in comfortable, domestic settings. Given the juxtaposition of the “cozy” covered person and their often mundane surroundings, her works could best be described as uncanny, discomforting or charged with a certain sense of unease.

Skees, a 2003 UAB bachelor of fine arts graduate and Professor of Art at Christopher Newport College, taught herself to knit during a year off from school.

“After covering a series of small objects, I created a ‘husband’ cozy,” she says. Skees says she sees the cozies as both protective and prohibitive. “We often cozy things that we want to remain undamaged, but when you apply the same approach to a person it limits their abilities in a very weird way.”

The exhibition also will feature a selection of the actual cozies.

“I wanted to be sure to highlight the fact that Kristin’s works exist in a space between photography and sculpture,” says Gallery Director Brett Levine, who curated the show.
